    She keeps her emotions locked inside
    No one would understand
    The pain she's felt
    The sorrow she feels
    Or the anger she has
    No one is there to hold her hand
    And help her through her sorrow
    No one understands
    She's cut before
    But she said she wouldn't do it anymore
    She can't help it
    So she makes another slit

    ~She is me~

    ______________________________________________
    She Swears

    A dull blade, so much blood
    So much to lose
    Nothing to hold
    No where to got, nothing to do
    She cries on this inside
    But she tried not to show it
    She tries to act okay
    But she loses her way
    She's been hurt with the blade
    And she swears she'll never love again

    ~She is me~

    Just because she comes off strong
    doesn't mean she didn't fall asleep crying.
    Even though she acts like noghting is wrong,
    maybe, just maybe she'll really good at lying.

    ~She is me~

    _________________________________________________
    ~She is me~ is something I put at the end of all my poem that sound like they are talking of some other girl to let people know that these poems are actually about me. It's kinda of my signature thing. Everyone at school knows my poems when they are in the school newspaper because that's what I put at the end. That way I don't have to sign my name.

    I think they are good if you want to let people know how you feel dark and pained and troubled but theyre not exactly the sort of think the majority of people would want to read. A work of art is always good for something -
    a work of art is never good just because someone thought it - yes they are good for letting us know how you feel but people have hectic lives of tradgedy and pain and happiness too and though they are good I do not think they are what huge numbers of people would think of as intellectual stimulants - merely emotional sentiments

    I like the dark mood the poet created here, but I can see how the overall negative emotion might put a few people off.

    I would like to see the poet's voice show a little more control in the future, rather than give the impression of a victim, or powerless bystander.

    Even if the poet fails, she must try and stand against the tide, to attract the reader to stand with her when they read her poems.

    There is great potential in these verse, because the poet relates directlty to her feelings.

    The only thing left now is beyond the written words.

    It's small choices that make us great people.(© White Scorpion)

    The poet has to realize that she has the power to become the epic hero, and every little aspect of her life is within her grasp to shape and give ethos to not just her destiny, but also the stanzas she creates to describe it.

    I'm sure that with your words many of your peers who lack the courage/will to express themselves have found a voice in you.....a quite literate and brave voice.....continue honing the knife not of a razors edge but of a written/spoken word........many cut many most cut skin and bleed blood....others pierce the soul and bleed words thrrough there their pen that fill the page and fill the silenced spirits with understanding......

    ~respect~

    There are "Real To Lyfe"

    But I've been on the 5th floor of our local hosptital 5 times for cutting before so finally my family just gave up on me to stop. My friends and my new boyfriend really want me to stop though. Hopefully, I just grow out of it.

    Thanks for the thoughts people! I will try and keep some of these things in mind...I'll post more this afternoon.
